 Monterey Diving

Hello,

I will be in Monterey (North California) around Sept. 17th (thursday) and would like to do some diving.
So... what is a good place to dive (Location and shop)?
Also I would be happy for a diving buddy so I can save costs on guided diving :-)
I am travelling with 2 other non-divers.

I see most shops are taking lots of money if one wants to dive at Point Lobos, is it worth it?
Another thing that bugs me is the equipment rental prices.
I saw the prices are 75-80$ if I want to rent full equipment for a single dive. That is 3-4 times more of what I am paying back home for the same service. Are those really the prices.

Thanks!!
